While this makes the first half more than a little dry it does introduce
concepts that many of us take for granted, such as why DDR3 is faster than
DDR2. The second half takes you through the Cisco UCS stack and where the
benefits are. It’s a good starting point but I’d hoped for some more meat,
maybe even a case-study or two. The book answered some of my questions but
it’s not amazingly comprehensive so expect to do a lot more digging after
you’ve finished reading it.

The book is self-published (Via Lulu) so it’s probably worth mentioning
the quality - it’s the same as any other book I’ve bought recently. No
better and no worse, which is actually pretty impressive.

6⁄10 - dry, fills a niche but covers a lot of general material not
specific to UCS.
